TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR BREEDING PRACTICES
Orion’s accredited livestock breeding courses are designed to empower farmers and give them control over their breeding practices as well as skilling our future generation of young farmers.
Our breeding courses are delivered on-farm and offer the opportunity to gain hands-on practice using live animals under expert supervision. Courses are interactive and our experienced instructors provide immediate and practical feedback.
Delivery of our courses on-farm would not be possible without all our dedicated host farmers. Orion’s Host Farm Incentive Program offers farmers the opportunity to support the growth of their industry and earn an incentive in the process.
Breeding courses are Animal Ethics approved based on our training practices and safe handling of livestock. On-farm training creates the best learning environment and our refresher courses help you fine tune learnt skills.
